This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference; and (2) This device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:

•

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna
for radio or television that is “receiving” the interference).

•

Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the
telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.

•

Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiving antenna is
connected.

If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult
your dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for
additional suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications
Commission has prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and
Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available

screen unwanted calls, eliminate harassment from annoying
calls, or to get prepared before answering a call.

 Because cordless phones operate on electricity,

you should have at least one phone in your home that isn’t
cordless, in case the power in your home goes out.

 In order to use all of the features of this

telephone, you must subscribe to two separate services available
from your local telephone company: the standard Name/
Number Caller ID Service to know who is calling when the
phone rings and Call Waiting Caller ID Service to know who is
calling while you are on the phone.

 Some cordless telephones operate at

frequencies that may cause or receive interference with nearby TVs,
microwave ovens, and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such
interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be
placed near or on top of a TV, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such
interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther away
from these appliances. Certain other communications devices may
also use the 2.4 GHz frequency for communication, and, if not
properly set, these devices may interfere with each other and/or
your new telephone. Typical devices that may use the 2.4 GHz
frequency for communication include wireless audio/video senders,
wireless computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone
systems, and some long-range cordless telephone systems.

Make sure your package includes the items shown here.

 Make sure the extra handset is registered

to GE Models 21018, 21028 or 21098 before use. When
registered to GE Models 21018, 21028, or 21098, this
accessory handset supports the same basic features of the

model it accompanies. However, it does NOT support the
Answering Machine features of GE Models 21028 or 21098.
Refer to the GE 21018, 21028 or 21098 instruction book for
detailed installation and operation information.
